# Hetzner Storage Exporter

**Initially forked from https://github.com/gmasil/hetzner-storagebox-exporter**.

- Applied some improvements
- Adapted documentation
- Added pipeline for publish to DockerHub

The main git repository is hosted at **[https://git.myservermanager.com/varakh/hetzner-storagebox-exporter](https://git.myservermanager.com/varakh/hetzner-storagebox-exporter)**.
Other repositories are mirrors and pull requests, issues, and planning are managed there.

This is a simple prometheus exporter to provide storage space metrics of a Hetzner Storagebox.

# Example

The exporter will start a webserver on port 80 (no HTTPS/TLS) and provide its metrics under every URI. The exporter checks the storage box under a given `USERNAME`.
A SSH private key to login via SSH has to be provided and SSH has to be enabled in Hetzner Robot.

Here you can see an example output of the hetzner-storage-exporter:

```shell
# HELP hetzner_storage_available Available storage in kilobytes
# TYPE hetzner_storage_available gauge
hetzner_storage_available{host="u123456.your-storagebox.de"} 1062381134
# HELP hetzner_storage_used Used storage in kilobytes
# TYPE hetzner_storage_used gauge
hetzner_storage_used{host="u123456.your-storagebox.de"} 11360690
# HELP hetzner_storage_total Total storage in kilobytes
# TYPE hetzner_storage_total gauge
hetzner_storage_total{host="u123456.your-storagebox.de"} 1073741824
```

# Build

Build simply with docker:

```bash
docker build --no-cache -t "varakh/hetzner-storagebox-exporter:latest" .
```

**Note:** This will build an image called `varakh/hetzner-storagebox-exporter:latest`.

# Usage

The exporter will **listen** on **port 80** and exposes it by default.

You have to provide your username for your storage box via environment variable `USERNAME` and a SSH private key to login.
Additionally you need a `known_hosts` file to accept the SSH connection.

Usage with `docker`:

```bash
docker run --rm -p 80:80 -e "USERNAME=u123456" \
  -v "/home/myuser/.ssh/id_rsa:/root/.ssh/id_rsa" \
  -v "/home/myuser/.ssh/known_hosts:/root/.ssh/known_hosts" \
  varakh/hetzner-storagebox-exporter:latest
```

Example `docker-compose` file:

```yml
version: '3'

services:
  hetzner-storage-exporter:
    container_name: hetzner-storage-exporter
    restart: unless-stopped
    image: varakh/hetzner-storagebox-exporter:latest
    port:
      - "9494:80"
    environment:
      - "USERNAME=u123456"
    volumes:
      - "/home/myuser/.ssh/id_rsa:/root/.ssh/id_rsa"
      - "/home/myuser/.ssh/known_hosts:/root/.ssh/known_hosts"
```

## Prometheus

In your `prometheus.yml` you can add the hetzner-storage-exporter like this:

```yml
global:
  scrape_interval: 15s
  evaluation_interval: 15s

scrape_configs:
  - job_name: "hetznerstorage"
    static_configs:
      - targets:
          - hetzner-storage-exporter:80
```

**Note:** As the exporter will provide the metrics on all URIs, you can leave all defaults like scraping on the `/metrics` URI.
